I've seen a lot of photos of german armour in Normandy, and they seem to have a quite thick stripe camo of brown and green, with very little yellow showing. Most of the Tigers probably had zimmerit. The camouflage was applied as commanded by the tank commanders and according to the terrain - the all-yellow tanks were quite easy to spot in the green French countryside! At the time of Normandy the tanks were painted randomly.
The colours would be Dunkelgelb base and olive green and red brown as the camo colors.
Sorry I don't have any pictures to prove this. But you're free to use your imagination if you are not using a photo to work with. |
